Salisbury’s Blankensop, Christopher Newport’s Yaghmmour Earn C2C Men's Soccer Players of the Week Honors

The Coast-To-Coast Athletic Conference (C2C) has announced its weekly awards following the third week of the 2025 men's soccer season. Salisbury's Noah Blankensop captured C2C Offensive Player of the Week honors, while Christopher Newport's Yazan Yaghmmour was named C2C Defensive Player of the Week.


OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Noah Blankensop, Salisbury

DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Yazan Yaghmmour, Christopher Newport

Christopher Newport junior Yazan Yaghmmour helped CNU secure a 2-0-0 performance on the field this week.  Played 144 minutes total in helping CNU secure a shutout against Rutgers-Camden and hold the potent Hampden-Sydney attack to just a singular tally.  Yaghmmour scored the game-winning goal against Rutgers-Camden and then assisted on a goal against Hampden-Sydney. His goal against Rutgers-Camden came in the 75th minute on a free kick as he scored his first career goal. Then, in the 69th minute against H-SC, Yaghmmour earned an assist as CNU pulled ahead, 3-1, against the Tigers.
